He indicated all leadership and workers have now been fully obtained from the Buck¬ eye Lodge membership and assignments of prospects have been completed. Sol D.

London' and Tel Aviv—Bertrand Russell, the British philosopher vvho recently engaged in an exchange of letters with Soviet Premier Khrushchev on the subject of anti- Semitism in Russia_ told an IsraeU newspaper correspond¬ ent in London that'he did not beUeve the premier was an anti-Semite.
In an interview with the Maariv London correspond¬ ent, Russell said: "I think there is a certain amount of anti-Semitism in Russia just as this is true about other countries. I don't think anti-Semitism is widespread in Russia, but one cannot tell this for certain."
London—John Tyndall, deputy leader of Colin Jor¬ dan's National Socialist movement, said that his party was still negotiating with the United Arab Republic for funds to support an anti-Jewish propaganda campaign in Britain. Tyndall made the statement on his release from a six- month prison term on charges of conducting antl-Semltlc fascist demonstrations in violation of the Public Order Aet.
Referring to a letter from himself to an Egyptian Colonel Shaziy, which was mentioned during his trial last October_ and had asked the UAR officer for financial aid for the "movement, Tyndall said that the negotiations had ,"not necessarily fallen through,"
I^ew York—The International Council of B'nai B'rith "urgently appealed" to the West German Government for fuU repayment of an Indemnification claim for B'nai B'rith properties in Germany that were confiscated by the Nazis in 1938. Half of a settlement, invoving 10,000,000 Deutsche- marks ($2,500,000) was paid by West Germany to B'nai B'rlth in May, 1959,
Johannesburg—A decision of the Beth Din (rabbinical court) that no Orthodox rabbi should attend any com¬ munal function also attended by a Reform rabbi threatened to unleash an inter-religious war in the South African Jewish community.
The ruling followed an Orthodox-Reform press con¬ troversy which began shortly after Rabbi Ahron Opher, formerly of Chicago, took office several months ago as Chief Minister of the Johannesburg United Progressive Jewish Congregation.
